A bit of breaking new before the countdown: the AP reports that Aerosmith is canceling its tour. The cause for the cancellation are the injuries received by frontman Steven Tyler in a fall from the stage during a performance in South Dakota on August 5th. His shoulder was broken in the fall.

On with the countdown, which showed quite a bit of moment this week, though mostly with a shuffle of familiar faces. The Jonas Brothers were again on top, followed by Taylor Swift, and once again Blink-182 zooms in from nowhere. The bottom five is completely different, with Wicked popping back in as the fall Broadway season gets underway.

Football season reminds us it is imminent once more, as the Texas Longhorns make an appearance on the countdown. After the Cowboys a couple weeks ago, followed by an odd interlude with soccer, we should be seeing some football on the countdown for at least the next few months.
